Asparagus Pâte feuilletée with Scallions and Goat’s Feta Cheese

Ingredients:

1 sheet of puff pastry

1 bunch of asparagus (about 1lb), bottoms removed*

1 bunch of scallions, thinly sliced

1 garlic clove, thinly sliced

Olive oil

Kosher salt

Black pepper

1 tsp of herbes de provence

3 tb goat’s feta cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 400F. Roll out puff pastry on floured surface into an 8 x 12 inch rectangle. Trim uneven edges and lightly fold over sides to make a 1-inch border. Lightly press the middle in with your fingers. Bake until lightly golden, about 15 minutes.

In a bowl, mix the asparagus, scallions, olive oil, and spices.

Heat a grill pan on medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Sautee the garlic until it browns slightly, and add the asparagus mixture. Let it cook through, about 5-7 minutes.
